New Michael's photostream  

I’m developing a facility hidden far into the mountains of Mendocino County in California. Perched on a ridge with panoramic vistas of the western horizon and Pacific Ocean, with gardens and a picturesque pond. I’m intending to stimulate an environment inspiring creativity. Drawing on the serenity of nature, and every sort of medium I can gather. I anticipate nearing completion in the next three years. Along with guest cottages the facility will include a multi media center with a MIDI and video production studio, ceramic studio and bronze foundry, a woodshop, a textile studio, a band room and amphitheater, a paint studio and a dance studio. A kitchen for the culinary arts; where the organic produce from the garden and orchard will treat the guests. All the energy generated to power the facility will come from alternatives sources: sun, wind and water.
My plan is to make the facility available for workshops and retreats a few times a year. As the time grows closer to completion, I’ll be developing a website with all the pertinent information. Inquiries are welcome.
